"You have cleaned this hall cleanly, and you are still going to put the pills on this table, making it clear that this is your game, if you are a demon who committed murder, will you come when you see this scene?" Shen Congrong pointed out the most obvious problem in their layout and asked.

Zhu Xinwen also knew how unrealistic this action he came up with on the spot, but when he was laying it out, he didn't take into account that Shen Congrong would come back suddenly. Originally, as long as he could successfully catch those spirits, or let them escape under Jin Yu's nose, at most, even if he was not in a good position, after all, he could prevaricate and report on the grounds that the other party was strong.

Who would have thought that Shen Congrong and they suddenly came back, this kind of layout is naturally full of loopholes in front of Shen Congrong, how can it be possible to catch a demon with such a game. Besides, even if the demons come and Shen Congrong is there, how can they still run?

Zhu Xinwen's mind was in a hurry, but in a short period of time, he really couldn't think of any reason that could explain his reasonable layout.

In this case, the stubborn mouth is obviously looking for death, so Zhu Xinwen chose to admit his mistake.

"Xinwen didn't think about it, I didn't think of this layer, no wonder those demons didn't come last night, and I asked Mr. for guidance. Zhu Xinwen bowed, admitted his mistake and asked Shen Congrong for advice, trying to save his previous mistake.

Shen calmly glanced at Zhu Xinwen and said: "Okay, you haven't experienced these things either, and it's normal to make mistakes, but where did you go, Jin Yu said that you stayed in Hu Yiyuan, but you weren't there when we arrived at Hu Yiyuan, and you didn't come in through the gate until just now." ”

For Shen Congrong's sudden change of words, Zhu Xinwen's heart jumped, knowing that if his answer could not satisfy Shen Congrong, there would be a big problem, but fortunately, just in case, he made preparations before coming back.

"Xinwen just went to eat something, because there are many people during the day, the demon may not appear, and Hu Yiyuan didn't leave any servants, so they were all let out to patrol, so I went by myself, at the Tianyue Tavern. The shopkeeper and the shopkeeper can testify, and when I came out, I also met a group of patrolling officials. Because he was afraid that there would be no one in the garden, the demon suddenly came to steal the pill, and Xinwen carried it with him all the time. Zhu Xinwen recounted the reasons for her absence, and offered that someone could testify for herself, and she promised that there would be no problems.

Zhu Xinwen's reasons are also legitimate and sufficient, and the specific locations are also available, and you can know whether it is true or false at a check. Shen Congrong didn't go into deep entanglement, and said: "It's quite thoughtful, okay, this Hu Yiyuan is packed up like this, so there is no need to lay it out here, leave two officials at the door, and tell the demon pill that the demon pill was taken away by the government, and lay it out in the town guard mansion." ”

"Uh......" Zhu Xinwen was stunned for a moment when he heard that Shen Congrong wanted to change the place, and then said: "In this case, will the officials outside the door be retaliated against by the demons who came? Moreover, if they are in the town guard mansion, do they really dare to come?"

I talked to those spirits about the action before, if I changed places, not to mention whether those fools could find a place, as long as I entered the Taishou Mansion, my operability would be too low, and Zhu Xinwen naturally didn't want to change places.

Glancing at Zhu Xinwen deeply, Shen said calmly: "Don't worry, I will let Muge guard here, with Muge in charge, the demons will definitely not be able to hurt the officials, and if they really dare to show up in Hu Yiyuan, they will be caught in the net." ”

Seeing that Shen Congrong's mind had been decided, Zhu Xinwen could only say: "Yes, everything is arranged by Mr." ”

Out of Hu Yiyuan, Shen Congrong did not go back directly to the town guard mansion, but walked in the direction of Tianyue Tavern. When they arrived in the town, it was already early, and they went to the town guard mansion to bring Jin Yu to Hu Yiyuan to investigate, and they were delayed in Hu Yiyuan for some hours. Just eat something, by the way, see if Zhu Xinwen is not in Hu Yiyuan, whether he is really eating at Tianyue Tavern.

As soon as he entered the Tianyue Tavern, the little servant greeted him and said, "A few guest officers, please, our store has good wine and food, all kinds of pasta and snacks, fresh fish, see what to eat?"

After habitually finishing the set of words, the little guy found out that the people who came were Jin Yu and Zhu Xinwen, and then looked at Shen Congrong who was standing in the middle, and hurriedly saluted: "Meet Mr., meet the town guard, meet the spirit beast, please go upstairs to the private room." ”

Nodding, under the guidance of the little maid, several people went to the private room upstairs.

casually ordered some food, Shen Congrong thought that there was still a Han Qu in the town guard mansion, and he hadn't eaten yet, so he asked for some food and asked the little guy to send it to the town guard mansion for Han Qu to eat.

Noting down Shen Congrong's needs and confirming that there were no other needs, the little guy left.

When he went out, Feng Muge opened the door of the private room and personally sent the little maid out. This made the little guy a little flattered.

Walking to the staircase with the little servant, Feng Muge asked, "Did Zhu Xinwen just come to the store to eat, when did he come, when did he leave, and what did he eat?"

Although he didn't know why Feng Muge asked this, the little girl knew that Feng Muge was the guard beside Shen Congrong, and replied truthfully: "Lord Spirit Beast has indeed just come to the store for dinner, probably when she first arrived, and she is alone. I didn't eat anything special, just a few small shops' specialty dishes, and a bowl of noodles. I stayed in the store for a total of two moments, and then I left after eating. ”

Judging from the words of the little girl, Zhu Xinwen did not lie.

"Alright, go get busy with you. After getting the information, Feng Muge let the little girl leave.

Back in the private room, Feng Muge said to Shen Congrong: "I've asked the little guy, Zhu Xinwen has not come for the first time, and he eats normally alone, and he stays for a total of two moments, which is in line with our time in Hu Yiyuan." ”

"Well, let's wait until we catch those spirits tonight. Shen replied calmly.

Feng Muge didn't think that he could catch the spirits tonight, and said: "We are in the town guard mansion, and I am in Hu Yiyuan, do those spirits really dare to come? The most important thing is, do these spirits really exist?"

Shen calmly and confidently said: "Of course it exists, and it will definitely appear tonight, otherwise Zhu Xinwen would not have laid out a demon hunt in Hu Yiyuan." ”

Feng Muge naturally knew what Shen Congrong meant, glanced at Zhu Xinwen and said, "Is it a chance to give her a chance to arrange?"

"No, she may not dare to go even if she is given the opportunity now, and if she is arranged normally, she will definitely take the initiative to make suggestions. Shen replied calmly.

After finishing their meal, they returned to the town guard mansion and set up a demon hunting bureau for the night.

Han Qu, who was bored in the town guard mansion, saw that Shen Congrong came back so early, and he was still busy with something, and guessed that something might have happened, but he didn't come over to ask, just watched from afar.

"Tell me what you think about the layout of the evening. Shen calmly asked Jin Yu and Zhu Xinwen.

Jin Yu was the first to speak: "I think that the pills should be put into the warehouse, and two shifts of officials should be equipped to patrol alternately outside the warehouse. On the one hand, it can indicate the storage location of the pill, and on the other hand, it can ensure the safety of the pill. The gentleman and the spirit beast waited in the shadows, and only waited for the demon to enter the net, so that he could take it down. ”

Zhu Xinwen felt that it was not right, and said: "First, the spirit may not know the location of the town guard mansion, let alone find the elixir stored in the warehouse. Second, even if the spirit found the location of the storehouse, would he really dare to do anything in the face of the two shifts of officials patrolling the storehouse? Third, we don't know whether there is one or more spirits, and if they have many of them and only send one person to investigate, what will we do? You know, if we catch a spirit, but he still has accomplices, there will be endless troubles. ”

Zhu Xinwen said these questions stopped Jin Yu for a while, and after thinking about it for a while, Jin Yu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Lord Spirit Beast really asked me, I don't know how to solve these questions." ”

Shen said calmly: "Since Xinwen can find and raise these problems, he must have thought of a solution, let's listen to it." ”

Zhu Xinwen was waiting for Shen Congrong's words, and immediately began to describe his plan: "I think we can do this." Put the pill in the middle hall, so that the pill gas leaks out, there is no guard patrol outside the middle hall, I guard the pill in the middle hall, and the gentleman observes in the dark. Not only can it ensure the safety of the elixir, but it can also induce the spirit to take it down in one fell swoop. ”

"Can this plan of yours solve the three problems you mentioned earlier?" Shen calmly questioned.

Zhu Xinwen said: "Mr. listened to Xinwen give you an analysis, put the pill in the middle hall, open the pill box to let the pill leak, so that the spirit can know the location of the pill, in this way, they will come to the town guard mansion and find the pill." The location of the pill was determined, and there were no guards patrolling and guarding, only me, if there was only one spirit, then he would probably give it a go, if he was not just one person, with my cultivation, he would definitely go back and call someone. Either way, they're going to be in the game. Even if I can't do it alone, don't I still have my husband by my side? In this way, it can be caught in one net and never suffer from future troubles. ”

Judging from Zhu Xinwen's analysis, although her plan cannot be said to be foolproof, it is still much better than Jin Yu's, and what Shen Congrong wants is Zhu Xinwen's plan.

"Okay, let's follow Xinwen's plan, Jin Yu, go and arrange it, let the officials disperse and rest, and don't let the spirits feel anything abnormal. The specific details of the plan are matched by you and Xinwen, and you will fully cooperate with the implementation of Xinwen's plan, and there must be no mistakes. Shen calmly adopted Zhu Xinwen's plan and said to Jin Yu.

"Yes, I understand. Jin Yu responded.

After dumping these things to Jin Yu and Zhu Xinwen, Shen Congrong left, she had other things to do.

Looking at the back of Shen calmly leaving, Zhu Xinwen breathed a sigh of relief and completely relieved. With Dan Qi guidance, even if those fools don't know the location of the town guard mansion, they can find it. Seeing themselves, they will definitely act, and at that time, as long as they take the first step to solve them, then Shen Congrong can't know anything, and all this will be over. He is still the spirit beast lord of Mulian Town, a demon killer, and enjoys the benefits he deserves.

At the beginning of the child, with the sound of three bangs, the spirits also began to act.

Following the Dan Qi, they came to the roof of a house three streets outside the town guard's mansion.

The leader looked at the direction from which the Dan Qi came from and said: "Where the Dan Qi floated out, it should be Hu Yiyuan that Sister Zhu said, Sister Zhu said, the people in the court are also guarding, we can't act rashly." Xiaohu, you first go and see how many of them are and the specific location of the pill, and also, confirm Sister Zhu's location, and then we will go in the direction of Sister Zhu. ”

The spirit that was ordered nodded, signaling that he understood, and ran cautiously towards the town guard's mansion.

When Xiaohu approached the town guard mansion, Shen Congrong, who was sitting in the west wing and drinking tea, found him.

Sensing that there was only one little demon, Shen Congrong did not make a move immediately, but continued to drink tea and wait for the movement in the direction of the middle hall.

The little fox followed the Dan Qi to the front of the middle hall, and did not find anything, the courtyard was very quiet, there was no patrol, only the middle hall was lit up.

Carefully touching the window in the middle hall, the little fox poked a hole in the window paper and looked inside.

There was no one else inside, only Zhu Xinwen was sitting at the table alone, and what was on the table was the six-turn True Yang Pill that Zhu Xinwen had shown them during the day.

"Didn't Sister Zhu say that there are still people in the court, why is she the only one? Could it be that the people in the court are all hiding?" Xiaohu thought to himself when he saw that there was only Zhu Xinwen alone.

Pricking up his ears, the little fox listened carefully to the sounds around him, trying to find the person who was hiding.

After listening for a while, he found no trace of other people, although Xiaohu felt that something was not right, but he didn't think much about it, and left the town guard mansion to report the news.

But the little fox didn't notice that there was a black shadow behind him.

Back on the roof, Xiaohu said: "I found the location of the pill, Sister Hu is guarding the pill alone, I didn't find any trace of anyone else, I don't know where they are hiding." The room where the pills were kept had two doors and six windows, and we could enter and leave from different places. ”

The leader nodded and said, "Okay, then we will enter through the main gate and leave from different directions, there are our brothers and sisters on Kuyuan Mountain, and we must not go back." If we succeed in escaping, we will go out through the gate through which we entered the town, meet twenty miles to the south, and then decide where to go. No matter who is caught, don't care, even if it's me, I can't miss the master's big thing. If you are accidentally arrested, you can run away if you have the chance, and if you don't have the opportunity, you can directly commit suicide, no matter what, you can't confide in the news about the master and Sister Zhu, remember?"

The other three spirits replied, "Write it down." ”

"Let's go. ”

With the leader's order, the spirits moved towards the town guard mansion one after another.

The little fox was at the rear, and he didn't act until the spirit in front of him crossed a roof. But just when he jumped, he was dragged down by a black shadow, and in fright, the little fox wanted to remind the few people who had already set off, but because his mouth was covered, he couldn't make any sound at all.

The little fox tried to break free, but the demon power was completely blocked by the other party, and he shook his body, and he couldn't get rid of the other party's clamp at all.

The other party didn't seem to plan to talk to Xiaohu here, so he used a force in his hand to make Xiaohu faint, and then left the alley with Xiaohu.

When he came to the roof of the front yard of the town guard's mansion, the leader counted it, and found that the little fox was gone, and frowned: "Where is the little fox?"

The other two spirits turned their heads to look and found that the little fox really didn't follow, and replied, "I don't know, why don't you go back and find him or wait for a while?"

The leader felt that something was wrong, how could a good person say that he would disappear if he couldn't see it, but at this moment, it has been a long time since Zichu, and he can't drag it out any longer.

"Don't wait, act. The leader ordered categorically.

Zhu Xinwen, who was sitting in the middle hall, heard Xiaohu's voice when Xiaohu came to test it, and she was ready to fight. But they didn't expect that they didn't attack until three minutes later.

A gust of demonic wind blew, and the doors and windows of the middle hall were all blown open, Zhu Xinwen raised her eyebrows, and said in her heart: "It's finally here." ”

Closing the pill box and putting it in his arms, Zhu Xinwen shouted: "Bold and demonic, dare to appear after committing a bloody case, you really don't take me in your eyes, and you won't be caught yet!"

With Zhu Xinwen's drinking, Jin Yu and the servants knew that the demon had arrived, and they began to act one after another to block the way out.

Shen Congrong did not go to the middle hall, but leaned against the door frame of the west wing with a teacup, and opened the law to watch the situation in the middle hall while tasting tea.

In the middle hall, Zhu Xinwen and the spirit leader pretended to fight, and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you four people, why are there three of them?"

The spirit leader replied, "Sister Zhu, I don't know. ”

Now is not the time to worry about this, Zhu Xinwen handed the pill box to the spirit leader and said, "Slap me on the shoulder, and then scatter and escape, quickly, while the master of the imperial court has not yet arrived." ”

Taking the pill box, the spirit leader took up his demonic power and slapped Zhu Xinwen on the shoulder, Zhu Xinwen was knocked to the ground, holding his shoulder and spitting out a mouthful of blood, as if he had lost his combat effectiveness.

"Withdraw!" knocked Zhu Xinwen down, and the spirit leader shouted to the other two, and ran to a window after speaking.

When the other two spirits heard this, they let out a cry and ran towards the other windows, retreating in an orderly manner according to the plan.

Shen Congrong, who had been watching the play, knew that it was time for him to appear, and his spiritual power was activated, and his speed increased sharply, and he arrived outside the window of the middle hall with only one step.

The teacup in his hand was thrown at the spirit leader, and the teacup suddenly became larger, holding the spirit leader in the teacup and the pill box in his hand flew towards Shen Congrong.

Reaching out and grabbing the pill box, and with another step, Shen calmly came to a spirit and kicked him in the chest, kicking the spirit back into the middle hall.

The spirit that fell to the ground curled up and let out a groan of pain, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth, the bones in his chest were clearly broken, and his breathing became very difficult.

The other spirit was also frightened when he heard the voice of his companion, but he didn't dare to look back at all, and ran out desperately, wanting to leave.

As soon as he went to the wall of the town guard mansion, he saw Shen Congrong flying in front of him with a smile on his face.

didn't have time to make any moves, so he was grabbed by the collar by Shen Congrong and brought back to the middle hall.

Shaking the spirit on the ground, Shen Congrong saw that the spirit that was kicked in by himself before was dead, and glanced at Zhu Xinwen who was still lying on the ground covering his shoulders, Shen Congrong said: "I was injured like this by a few little demons, it seems that it is not good for you to defend Mulian Town alone." ”

Zhu Xinwen didn't dare to look at Shen Congrong, bowed his head and said, "It's Xinwen who underestimated the other party's combined attack skills, and asked Mr. to punish him." ”

"It's okay, fortunately, these little demons have all been caught. Shen Congrong didn't scold Zhu Xinwen too much, threw the pill box in front of Zhu Xinwen and said, "You found this six-turn True Yang Pill, it will help you recover from your injuries, so I'll give it to you." ”

Zhu Xinwen picked up the pill box and said, "Mr. Xie." ”

Watching Zhu Xinwen open the pill box and eat the pill, Shen calmly nodded with satisfaction and called Jin Yu.

"Sir. Jin Yu came to the middle hall and saluted Shen calmly.

Shen calmly kicked the spirit monster in front of Jin Yu and said: "The demonic power of this little demon has been blocked by me, he is no different from ordinary people now, locked in prison, I will interrogate him tomorrow." ”

"Yes. Jin Yu beckoned a few officials and asked them to lock up the little demon and take him to prison.

Clapping his hands, Shen said calmly: "Okay, everything has been settled, and the demons have been caught, just wait for tomorrow's public trial, we will know if they killed the husband, and then the Ming canonical punishment will be done." Clean up the house, Xinwen is healing, don't bother too much, I'll go to Hu Yiyuan. ”

After arranging the affairs of the town guard's mansion, Shen Congrong went to Hu Yiyuan.

Feng Muge, who had been guarding in Hu Yiyuan for half the night, was closing his eyes and recuperating, waiting for the demons who might come, and after feeling Shen Congrong's breath, he stood up and went out to greet him: "Mr. came here, have you already caught those spirits?"

Nodding, Shen said calmly: "Yes, it has indeed been caught, but there is one less." ”

"One less, is there a demon who can escape from Mr.?" Feng Muge was a little surprised.

Shen said calmly: "No, the one who is missing is the one who came to the town guard mansion to visit the letter, and when he really acted, he didn't come." ”

Feng Muge thought for a moment and said, "Sir, do you think this is the mastermind, or was it arrested?"

"Judging from his cultivation, he will never be the mastermind behind the scenes, I have seen it with the eyes of the law, there must be a connection between them and Zhu Xinwen, right now we have a living mouth in our hands, and there is a little demon who doesn't know his whereabouts, this matter is quite interesting. Shen calmly analyzed.

"Sir came here because you think that the little demon who disappeared will come back here?" Feng Muge asked.

Shaking his head, Shen said calmly: "He shouldn't come back, I think he was taken away by someone, it's useless here, I only came because they have been arranged by me to do things, and I can only call you back by myself." ”

Feng Muge said with a smile: "Even if I keep vigil here, I don't have to do anything, Mr. can not come." ”

"You're fine, but the matter is over for the time being, these officials have families, and they have to be let go back. Shen calmly glanced at Feng Muge and said.

"Yes. Feng Muge scratched his head and said to the two officials on duty at the door: "The demon has been captured, you can go back to rest." ”

Let the two officials go back to rest, Shen Congrong and the two closed the door of Hu Yiyuan and walked in the direction of the town guard's mansion.

After they left, a dark shadow turned out of the alley, and in his hand was the captured little fox.
